What are the networking requirements for the OLVM/RHV proxies?

Hello,

 

For VMware there's a youtube video specifying each communication requirements between commvault components, access nodes, and vCenter/ESXi hosts.

 

I am trying to find the same for the OLVM environment. 

 

Does anyone know?

 

Regards,

Pedro

@PedroRocha ,

We had a several customers having issues using OLVM and needed port 7002 which fixed their issue.

Maybe he thought I wrote OVM instead of OLVM, right?

 

since docs are incomplete I thought anything could be possible.

 

I sent a doc feedback to have it added to the olvm reqs

 

thanks man

It is quite straight forward, you got a link form Sebastian pointing to the system requirements for OVM.

OLVM is a different hypervisor. Depending which one you have, port requirements will differ for the VSA.

7002 is port needed for Oracle VM but you have Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager. So depending of type of hypervisor you have the needed ports are different.

I understand that… @Sebastien Merluzzi said one thing and you another..

 

I am just trying to get it right..

I am afraid not documented, but found similar thread from last year

VSA proxy will interact with the RHEV manager via REST API, so this explicitly means using https and port 443 used. vsbkp.log will show you the URL we connect to.

So only 443? Not 7002 as mentioned before?

@PedroRocha

You are right we do not seem to list the required ports.

Can you please submit a feedback so Development will add them?

These ports are good.

OLVM should be treated as RHEV. Port 443 is needed to interact with the manager.

 

Yes… unfortunately, 443 is not listed here: https://documentation.commvault.com/2022e/expert/96272_system_requirements_for_virtual_server_agent_with_red_hat_enterprise_virtualization_02.html

 

Is it documented anywhere else?

 

I asked the firewall guy to open 80, 443 and 7002. Is this right?

Pedro
